The last vice-president to leave office early other than by death or coming indictment - John C. Calhoun. Not likely to happen now. Was Spiro Agnew indicted?

Was Spiro Agnew indicted? Spiro Agnew - inaugurated 39th Vice President of the United States on January 20, 1969; reelected Vice President, November 7, 1972; charged with accepting bribes and falsifying federal tax returns, pleaded nolo contendere to the latter charge in federal court, and resigned October 10, 1973

No. He pled no contest and resigned. If he didn't, he would have been.

Indicted, convicted and sentenced. Didn't he serve some time as well?

That's what I thought (tax evasion?)

>> Unlike John C. Calhoun, who resigned to take a seat in the Senate, Agnew resigned and then pled nolo contendere (no contest) to a criminal charge of tax evasion, part of a negotiated resolution to a scheme wherein he allegedly accepted $29,500 in bribes during his tenure as governor of Maryland. <<

Peeing doesn't count as speaking to someone.
